Welcome back to the Law School Toolbox podcast! Today, we're talking with ex-BigLaw recruiter, Sadie Jones, about what to do if you don't have a summer job yet. It's too soon to panic!

In this episode we discuss:

• The difference between the 1L and 2L summer job hunt
• Why it’s not time to panic, but it is time to take action
• Why networking is key and how to get started
• How to use your law school’s resources to your advantage
• Organization, and how to use technology to streamline your job hunt process
• Job hunting and networking etiquette – how to stand out as a professional
• Why location is almost as important as what job you get
